ASSIB JAMBIYA FOR COMMENT AND TRANSLATION

Well I can't translate but that is a nice set. The scabbard is very similar to mine which were made in Hadraumaut by a particular family and were of the finest quality. These scabbards were made up until 1931-32. The jambiya itself seems to be made a bit later than the scabbard still a real nice piece these older quality jambiya are getting harder and harder to these days.

Congrats
